One of the Republican presidential hopefuls, Mike Huckabee, recently proclaimed that legalizing gay marriage would bring the "end of civilization." Does he realize that gay marriage is already allowed in the Netherlands, Belgium (love those chocolates), Canada, South Africa, and Spain, and that a variation called civil partnerships is allowed in New Zealand and the United Kingdom (which consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland)? Has civilization ended in any of those countries? Did allowing gay marriages stop heterosexuals from marrying? Did the birthrate plummet? Is heterosexual sex so much worse than gay sex that it needs the special legal protection of marriage to promote heterosexuality?
What of our Canadian neighbors? Has their civilization collapsed and nobody noticed? Do we need to send relief expeditions?
Why does the GOP attract such idiots?
